I'm new to these boards, but I, too, chose to try Tiny Details against my better judgement. I worked for Cottage Industries for nine years and had a very good experience with them. I've made hundreds of miniature books for them. (paper backs, and hard cover books with dust jackets) Anyway, I thought it would be the perfect thing for me to do. My first bunch of books was rejected, they said I did an overall good job, but some of the pages were cut on aslant, and they saw no other problems with my books. So I carefully went through them and fixed 22 of them that I thought they might find objectional (with a magnifying glass) lol! ,sent them back in and got them back with all sorts of problems. The pages were still cut on a slant, meaning the pages at thebackof the book were were wider than the pages at the front, they said they were not centered in the spine, and the dust covers were loose on some of them. They said they would extend my time by a month to send them back in, but I have given up on them. Yes, they are a big SCAM, and a very convincing and elaborate one. It really hurts my pride and integrity plus my pocketbook.


P.S. In case you are wondering Cottage Industries have ceased working right now, the owner-manager is ill and the business has come to a standstill.
